Teamwork: The Beginning.

A/N: An Idea I've been throwing around for a while. The story is called Teamwork: The Beginning, because the story starts from the beginning. Before any of the action begins. All of the Characters are 12 years old. Period. End of story.

If I had started the story when they were 17, or 18, you wouldnt really understand what happened to make them act the way they do when they're older. So, Its important to start from the beginning.

Summary: 12 years ago, the Nine Tailed Fox demon (Kyuubi) attacked Kohoha, and the fourth sealed him into his son, Naruto Uzumaki. But instead of dying, the fourth went into a temporary coma – lasting nearly 6 months. Naruto was then taken care of by an old family friend, Kaai Veena.

8   years later, Itachi Uchiha learned the truth about the Uchiha clan, and about the Mangekyo Sharingan. He found the information interesting, but he did not kill his friend to gain the power, or kill his family to test his new ability. Thus, he and Sasuke were closer than ever.

Five years prior, Orochimaru had murdered Mikoto Uchiha's family, except for a young boy – Niasuke. Niasuke was given to the Uchiha clan to be raised as one of the family. (his aunt and uncle) He grew up as a middle child, between Itachi and Sasuke.

Now, 12 years later, the children have grown up. They must stop Orochimaru, and the Akatsuki, while becoming great shinobi in the hidden leaf village.

This Will be different. It will not be like the show at all.

Warnings: No sex. Period. There is language, violence, pure stupidity, and fluff.

Parings:

NaruSasuAzuSaku: Main pairing. Complicated love square. Naruto likes Sakura, but she obviously likes Sasuke, but Sasuke likes Azura(my original character.) Azura likes both Naruto and Sasuke, but she's 'dating' Neji. And Naruto and Sasuke wont admit this, but they both secretly like eachother.

The rest is going to be decided as the story goes on.

Teams:
In cannon there are three members per team, but this is my story, and Azura Veena is part of team 7 Theres a reason behind four members on team 7.It will be explained in the story.

Yes, there are a lot of original characters in this story.

A/N #2: Why is it called teamwork? well, why do you think its called teamwork, eh? They are a team. They work together. Not only team seven, but the other teams as well.
